Darrell L. Barger, Rose Rivera Vela, Barger & Moss, L.L.P., Corpus Christi, for Appellee.

Before LÓPEZ, STONE and DUNCAN, JJ.


OPINION

LÓPEZ, Justice.

This appeal originated from the payment of attorneys fees to a law firm that represented the López family in their lawsuit against Westinghouse. The Lópezes sued their lawyers in that case for breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty, and the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the lawyers. The Lópezes are appealing the trial court's order.
